paul, I have two MZ-S bodies and have experienced neither of your problems. I have run some bulk loaded film through them. I have found that with bulk loading, too many frames and/or plastic cartridges can cause binding during wind/rewind. I have seen this more on the rest of the MZ line, which don't have very powerful motors.
It does sound like you might have a unique problem that needs attention from Pentax. Certainly this is the first time I have heard of it.
